It’s a story familiar to many mums and their families: Mum focuses her energy on the health and well-being of her family, forgetting about her own health needs.

This mother’s day (and every other day), let’s change that narrative! Focusing on mum’s health, and women’s health in general, is one of the most powerful things you can do.

There are five health major health issues women face today:

1.    Heart disease
2.    Breast cancer
3.    Osteoporosis
4.  ...

Most people throughout the world are currently nervous about the potential impact of COVID-19, however, it’s now more important than ever to remind ourselves that we should still keep active for two key reasons...

• We all understand that exercise supports our physical health, it can also help us fight off infection, however, during times of crisis such as this, it is the first activity we maybe don't prioritise or stop doing.
  
  
• Exercise is also unique in that it can boost our mental health, and during this anxious...

Wow, Term 1 for Pilates in the Park has not gone to plan... Rain, floods and iso (for some) has caused disruption and chaos to the start of our year for practicing Pilates. 

I would like to say well-done and thank you to those of you who continued to practice pilates online at home or took advantage of the other studio alternatives that I offered. 

Wet weather does sometimes interfere with our outdoor classes and I hope those of you who participated in the small group equipment classes enjoyed the...

“I was impressed with our first Equipment Class at Marnie’s Studio. The focus from Marnie was solidly on us and the workout was upbeat and filled every moment of the 45mins. Simple recipe- one person on the reformer, one on the wunda chair and one using roller or Fitball... then we rotate to use each piece of equipment. It was challenging and enjoyable, comfortable and satisfying. “

• Do you think your current level of fitness “isn’t enough” or that you don’t have enough “core strength" or flexibility?
  

In my experience there are many reasons why people don’t give Pilates classes a try. It can be scary, going into a totally different environment to one you have ever...

Pilates, popularized by celebrities for its long, lean, and sculpted aesthetic, has become a household name.

It’s much more than the oversimplified marketing that promotes a “long and lean” figure, and more than the misconception that it’s primarily for women.

Pilates is for everybody, regardless of gender, age, race, size, ability, or current fitness level.

The Pilates repertoire, which includes mat and specialized equipment exercises, is made up of over 600 exercises and variations.

There’s something for...
